Abstract :

Montgomery T–tube has been used to maintain tracheal lumen patency. In our case it was removed in a 7yr old child suffering from congenital subglottic stenosis, while removal of the Montgomery T–tube, avulsion of its horizontal limb followed by bleeding at tracheal stoma leads to the obstruction of the airway resulting in a dramatic clinical deterioration. The present case report details our experience with this dangerous complication.
